Nonstop Quality
The heavy-duty MT 1000-1 Mobile Feeder provides for a continuous and consistent flow of mix to your asphalt paver. It does so in non-contacting operation without docking, thus no risk of changing the screed’s position. This way, the paver keeps paving nonstop and produces uniform asphalt pavements of prime quality. The high performance of the Mobile Feeder allows to continuously supply even large pavers (like VÖGELE SUPER 2500) with hot mix. Mounted on crawlers, the Mobile Feeder features a maximum of tractive effort and tracking stability. Due to its compact design, transport is easy.
Hydraulics applied for slackening the conveyor belt and operating the scraper provide that the Mobile Feeder does its job without requiring much service.
Technology that pays off: MT 1000-1 Mobile Feeder.
- Nonstop and non-contacting supply of mix to paver for highest pavement quality
- High performance to feed even large pavers such as SUPER 2500
- Compact size for convenient transport
- Low maintenance, cleaning made easy
- Safety and comfort thanks to mix level monitoring, distance control and collide protection
Hydraulic Belt Tension Adjuster
The conveyor belt can be slackened at the push of a button. This design makes cleaning and checking of return drum, scraper beneath the rubber belt and feed area of the belt very easy.
Hydraulic Scraper
The scraper at the dumping end of the rubber belt moves hydraulically away from the belt for convenient cleaning. The distance between drive drum and scraper is fixed. Hydraulic pressure is also applied to smoothly put the scraper back to the belt.
Monitoring Mix Level in Paver’s Material Hopper
As soon as the mix level in the paver’s material hopper reaches a preset limit, a sonic sensor stops the Mobile Feeder's worm conveyors and conveyor belt. This prevents the drive drum of the Mobile Feeder from getting packed with mix.
Trough-shaped Conveyor Belt
Precise guidance of the rubber belt along the sides ensures positive sealing. No spilling or accumulating of mix on the rollers beneath the belt.
Return Drum Not Enclosed
When paving coarse mix, big grains cannot get stuck between return drum, rubber belt and the sealing components. Service life of the belt is thus prolonged substantially.
Distance Control
High-tech sensor technology monitors the clearance between paver and Mobile Feeder and keeps them at an optimum distance from one another. This allows the paver operator to fully focus on his paving job.
Collide Protection
In the event of a stop, the MT 1000-1 offers extra safety. A sturdy collide protecting system is installed which, as soon as the distance between paver and Mobile Feeder becomes shorter than the preset minimum, operates the paver’s Traction Main Switch and stops the paver to prevent a collision.
Heated Conveyor
The conveyor is equipped with infrared heating (gas) to heat the rubber belt before starting work. This way hot mix is prevented from sticking to the belt.
